I wouldn't count on saving $$ due to higher gas mileage if you have to add bottles to other branded gas. The cost of the stuff is >= what you will save due the little bit of higher mileage you may get.

If you get the Chevron gas, it's in every tank. If you have to add it from the bottle, I'd put it in every tank, but I'd find out how much is in put the Chevron gas and match that amount.

All in all, it's easier and cheaper just to put the Chevron gas in it rather than buy the bottles (or Texaco now that it has Techron added too )
